Item description from seller

A collection of spectacular and ethereal images from the film BERLIN: A Performance By LOU REED, Directed By JULIAN SCHNABEL, including a conversation they recorded especially for this book. A unique collaboration betweeen two artists. Large Hardcover Folio, approx. 12" tall x 9" in illustrated boards with a small transparent front board label, and no dust jacket, as issued; unpaginated, color illustrated throughout Über das Buch: Berlin is a concept album that represented a brave departure from the familiar sounds and themes of Lou Reeds earlier solo work, a tragic tale about heartbreak and addiction meant to be played live as a rock opera, in the vein of The Whos Tommy. But its poor reception meant that plans for a live performance were put on hold until 2007, when, with a renewed confidence in the material, Reed toured with a full orchestra and choir, giving some of the most personal and powerful performances of his career. The tour was filmed by legendary artist Julian Schnabel, a longtime friend of Reeds who also designed the spare and beautiful set, and whose daughter Lola contributed moving images projected behind the stage. This immeasurably powerful book draws on stills from Schnabels film, photographs of the set design, printed lyrics of Reeds original verse, and images from Schnabels projections to tell the twin stories of Berlin as rock opera and as unique collaboration between two geniuses of contemporary art, music, words, and film. The book also includes a rare conversation between Reed and Schnabel. In englischer Sprache. 176 pages. 314x235 mm.…
